Samsung Kies

As most have complained and I have not found any for sure solution I wanted to see if you guys could help.
Picked up my captivate today and went to try and sync my contacts via kies, no matter what I have tried it does not seem to work.
I'm windows XP SP3 framework 4.0 tried reloading drivers, reboots etc.
when I go to the contacts in Kies it says SGH I897 device not supported
Somebody please help
Anybody? I have seriously tried everything to get it to sync via kies, and this basically leaves my phone a useless brick without my contacts.
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers and kies etc.
HELP?
Honestly, just export you contacts to a .csv file and import them directly to your google account, if you don't have a google account go make one it is free and the best service for cloud computing and mail (storing contacts, mail, bookmarks,etc...), and it will sync ota with your android phone

How do you take the contacts on your phone and import them to .Cvs? I thought about doing this but I didn't see a setting for that on the phone.

If your contacts are already on the phone what is the problem?
But your phone contacts should have sync to your google contacts alreadys long as you have syncd your google account to the phone.

Very few of my contacts are synced to Google because they aren't listed as a Google contact. That is why I personally wanted to do the Cvs file then import to Google so I don't have to manually establish them as a Google contact.

Well my biggest issue with this, is that I already have 500 some odd google contacts on my primary gmail. I have no want or need for the majority of those contacts. So even if I was willing to do it via the CSV method I would need to make one of the other groups my primary contact sheet and not the gmail one.
So i guess i'm just stuck with 700+ contacts?
bueller? anyone?

I'm having the problem with Google contacts too. If I add a new picture to my google account it will sync right too my phone but the ones I added before using Odin one click will not sync. Is there a way to force the pics to sync?
I tried to change some info on a contact thinking that might force a sync. The info updated but not the pic.

I keep my contacts synced with google so they are there as soon as I sync my google account to the phone.

Under contacts ,menu import/export choose export to Sim should make a exact copy of your phone book names it some **** like 001.v or a vcard something like that . Any way after flashing go back to contacts choose menu import from sdcard should search find the vcard and it will update your contacts

Contacts in AOKP

I have a lot of contacts synced with gmail, but most of them are emails and i don't need them in my phones contacts. How do i delete multiple contacts at once?

Don't remember if you can do a batch select (I've only done it once and for the same reason) but you need to log in to gmail from a computer and edit the contracts from there. Also I believe in contacts settings you can set it to show only contacts with phone numbers.

Like eb says using a computer you can edit the contacts. What I would do is setup groups and only sync the various groups with phone numbers.
Thanks guys, but i tried something else. I installed go contacts ex and then did a batch delete of all the contacts i don't want

Wait, couldn't you just have go into options on your phone and choose to hide e-mails?

Don't have that option. And i have one more problem. How do i sync all my Facebook contacts. When i was on gb and installed Facebook, the first screen would all if i wanted to sync all my contacts, sync with existing contracts, or don't sync at all. But now i don't see and can't find that screen

This works well for syncing fb contacts. You can choose all contacts or existing in the settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

Open app drawer select People, then menu contacts to display, customize. Select your facebook account and it will show a box for all contacts if that isnt checked then it is only syncing with existing contacts. If you select your gmail account you will have the option to sync all the groups individually.
It says no contacts. There's no way to get to that screen on the Facebook app that asks how youwant to sync the contracts?

Clear all data log out and uninstall the app. Reboot your phone re-install the app. If that doesnt bring the option up then its go forever.
Maybe?

Found this. I haven't tried it since I'm at work doing a 24 hr shift. Figured I would let people know what I found. I plan to give a try after I get some sleep. If anyone gives it a go could you please let us know how it goes?

Contacts Sync Error

Is there any possible way to remove the ICE contacts? I have found that having these contacts makes them impossible for google to sync them. The workaround i found was downloading the Contacts Fixer app from the market and it fixed it but i have a feeling the issue will come back. So is there anyway that i can delete them?
